Hello WaytoGo, don't be confused.

Satellite signals behave like light rays, the dish face the satellite and the signals are reflected onto the LNB. Picture 1

Satellite signals also behave same as light by obeying the laws of reflection. (You first question)
The law of reflection states that when a ray of light reflects off a surface, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Picture 2.

To Install multi LNB on a single satellite dish.

Now when you move a dish away from a satellite, you increase the angle of incidence of the satellite signal, the angle of reflection also increases
In a nutshell, if a satellite signal comes from left of the dish, you search for the reflected signal on the right part of the dish. the same is applicable from top, i.e. you get Belintersat 1 at 51.5°E and moves the dish to NigComSat 1R at 42.5°E you have moved the dish up, which has increased the angle of incidence in which case you need to place your LNB above NigComSat 1R at 42.5°E to search for Belintersat 1 at 51.5°E to receive the signal, not below .

Picture 3.

Wow!

This is it. Quite comprehensive!

No words to appreciate this huge gesture/sacrifice. Thanks a bunch.

If your reason for asking is to know if the signal is active.. Then Yes, is the answer to that question.

Hello guru digitman my question is, @ the default coordinates position of dstv dish what possible free to air channels can be tracked

Go to front page, scroll down to the bottom of the page, you'll see supermod there. Simply click on it and copy the message you got in your profile. It works. Try it! Probably it's the anti-bot.

@mayor999,

Trying to respond to you got me a ban yesterday . Still noticed that you asked the same question in another forum and got no response. Considering that you're new to this will bring about one question leading to another. To avoid getting ban in the course of the question and answer. Just collect my number and chat me up, so I can be able to answer all your questions without restrictions

You should try putting the response in a screenshot and posting the picture cheesy

Really never thought of that. Genius shocked


All the same, we chatted and it turn out to be the same question we all have answered pages back.. On people trying to compliment FTA to their existing ( make I nor mention the name, cause I always get a ban for that.. Lol) setup.

The motor moves dish up and down because I'm close to the equator I only change the dish elevation azimuth remains the same

Nice setup from great FTA enthusiast. Gith from Jamii. You are welcome to Nairaland... FTA section where we share our findings with love, not like front page where people bash themselves. We were with your brother Kungu here for many years.

For the fact that what you are getting from 28.2e, 32.9e, 42.5e and 51.5e, is not enough to quench your thirst... Then the next thing I will say will get me a ban.

Pls help. I switched on my set only to see"Signal is weak" all through.

What could be wrong and how do I go about correcting it?

How much did you purchase the linear actuator and control switch with remote.

I'm interested in the setup
